IoT / Sensor / Device Data

Internet of Things is changing everything.

Everyday objects — from consumer goods to industrial machines — form the Internet of Things (IoT), a growing network of millions of sensors and devices that can share information and complete tasks while we go about our daily lives. From homes and cars to city streets and weather satellites, seemingly everything will be connected to the Internet and will provide a continual stream of data that can be used to improve our lives and businesses.

Enterprise applications collect time series data, which requires aggregation and analysis to be useful. But optimally storing and analyzing time series data with traditional databases is often not possible.

SENSOR & DEVICE DATA ON RIAK TS

Sensor and device data comes in at high velocity with a variety of data formats and at massive volume. This requires a database that can read and write time series data fast. Riak TS is a high performance, highly resilient NoSQL database optimized for time series data. By co-locating data based on time range, it is easier to ingest, transform, store, and analyze sensor and device data. Riak TS scales horizontally with commodity hardware to meet increasing volumes of data. No need for complex data sharding.
